Christopher Walken & The Chap

A Partial Review of Mega Breakfast


Listening to the Chap is like watching Christopher Walken act.


You know they are a band you enjoy, but you are not sure how they do what they do and why it works. It really shouldn’t. But it does. Fantastic fun and astonishingly odd.


Their music leaves you knowing you are hearing something special and not caring where it came from, just glad it’s there.


And the partial review of their latest album, Mega Breakfast (Lo Recordings LCD68), goes a little like this…


Fun & Interesting is Chrisopher Walken in Click.  


Ethnic Instrument is Christopher Walken’s Three Little Pigs on Jonathon Ross.


Carlo Walter Wendy Stanley is Walken as Captain Coons.


PS - saw them live in Amsterdam on Friday last. You should have been there. Go here to find out what live Chap tastes like.
